I'm not where everyone expected me to be.

Not where all expected me to be.

Back in college, I was average. I don’t get straight A’s but I excel in recitation. I love my course. I argued with my mom to pursue it. She wanted me to take up Nursing but I had a shouting match with her as I reason out why I have to take up Masscomm. Just because I feel my heart is in it. I’m not the bibo type but I loved every minute of what we do. With this, everyone expected me to be in the industry.

After we graduated, I searched for a job that would take me out of my bum life. Bummm??? I had my first job, April 27, 2008. It never entered my mind to apply in a broadcasting company, I don’t know why.

I wanted to try in an Advertising Company and I’m still hoping until 2 weeks ago, I had a client that works for an Advertising Agency and she’s downright crazy. I mean, everything blows out of proportion because of her stress. She can’t seem to manage everything. Knowing myself, I dont think I can handle that stress. Honestly.

I do what I do best. and that is to communicate. Communication takes you to places. It doesnt have to be where everyone expected you to be, it just has to be where you find yourself happy and contented.

I see my friends in the industry and field we chose, and I’m happy for them. I am more than glad that people strive hard for their dreams and I’m one of them. I wanted to have a job that is pro-active, self fulfilling and fun all at the same time. And I got it. and being given the chance to hold a managerial position is the cherry on top of my ice cream. :p

Life’s that simple. When you go out in real life, you don’t carry your degree with you. It matters, but what employer’s credit is your dedication and passion for what you do. That’s how you will help the company in the first place. Choosing another path for myself is my decision and I’m more than happy with what I chose.
